SANTA CRUZ — The California Office of Traffic Safety issued a $110,000 grant to Santa Cruz Police Department for a year of enforcement and public education for impaired driving and pedestrian and cyclist collisions, a department spokeswoman said.

The money will be used to bolster DUI saturation patrols to remove suspected impaired drivers, and drivers with revoked or suspended licenses, off the roads, spokeswoman Joyce Blaschke said. Patrols also will be increased at intersections with increased risk of collisions involving pedestrians or cyclists.

The police department is preparing a list of DUI repeat offenders and officers will be trained to identify other forms of impairment, Blaschke said.

“The department will focus on school zones surrounding bell times, strategic enforcement at locations with a history of collisions and nighttime enforcement during weekends, targeting driving under the influence,” Police Chief Andy Mills said.
